Vicon Blade Helps Prepare Students for Real-World Success

Motion capture technology specialist Vicon today
announced that
it has partnered with Richland College’s Interactive Simulation and Game
Technology department to provide all students in the department’s motion capture
(mocap) class with industry-standard
Blade software. Designed
for a future where motion capture and live-action shooting become
indistinguishable, Blade will enable Richland’s students to capture
performances effortlessly and deliver robust, reliable data that enables
creativity.

The
Interactive Simulation and Game Technology program at Richland gives students
the opportunity to work with the current software programs and sophisticated
gaming technology that professionals use. The motion capture class gives students
hands-on experience in everything from organizing a shoot with multiple actors
and a shot list to post processing the data, using Blade software for
capturing, labeling, tracking/cleaning and solving.

“Vicon
is a leader in motion capture systems—you get better quality data, cutting-edge
hardware and software, and good customer service,” said Richland College’s motion
capture instructor, Brian Mckee, who has used Vicon systems throughout his
career at top studios including Gearbox Games, Blur Studios, and House of Moves.
“The ability to work with and learn Blade will give students a major advantage
as they try to enter a small and competitive industry.”

“Richland
College is located in the heart of Dallas, which is considered one of the top
cities for game development,” said Jeffrey Ovadya, sales and marketing
director, Vicon. “By partnering with Richland, we’re helping future generations
of mocap professionals on their path to success in their real-world careers.”
